Belgium School Rhythms: Regular Schedules and Holidays for Francophone Students

2023-12-25 05:00:00

Since September 2022, Francophones in Belgium have adopted a new school rhythm: every 7 weeks of classes (6 at least, 8 at maximum), they have two weeks of vacation. A way to have a more regular rhythm for students and to limit school dropout.

At the start of the holidays, we take stock of your children’s upcoming school holidays.
